Clare’s drawing #1

I have a bunch of notebooks under my worktop. I pulled one out to use the other day and saw illustrations Clare drew in the notebook. The first is of a dog-like creature wearing, is it clothes of a jester? and balancing a hat on its tail which is actually the head of a snake.

The creature has pointed teeth and sharp claws. This is not something I’d like to encounter anywhere at all. It’s a nightmare creature.
